The Ohio Genealogical Society is pleased to announce that we are beginning to make many of our genealogical publications available for purchase through Lulu, an online print-on-demand vendor.

This new approach offers exciting benefits for both OGS and our members. With on-demand printing, books are produced only when ordered—eliminating the need for large print runs or storage space, while ensuring that titles remain available indefinitely. For customers, this means easier access to OGS publications, quick and reliable shipping, and professional-quality printing.

We are starting with a small selection of titles, with more to be added in the coming months. Whether you’re researching Ohio’s early families or seeking to expand your local genealogical library, our growing catalog on Lulu will make finding and purchasing OGS publications simpler than ever.
